This study identified a new variety of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia that includes patchy hair loss on the lateral and posterior scalp in African-American women, which could be misdiagnosed as traction alopecia without dermatoscopy and pathology.

Hair damage shows as fragility, dullness, and discoloration, varies by ethnicity, and is worsened by cosmetic procedures and diseases.

In this study, 61.4% of females infected with COVID-19 reported hair problems, such as telogen effluvium and increased gray hair, with most cases starting or worsening post-infection as confirmed by trichoscopy.

The abstract does not provide any specific research findings or results, but rather serves as a promotional description for IP Innovative Publication Pvt Limited, highlighting their services and publication offerings in medical journals and related fields from Delhi, India.

This study found that trichoscopy was 73.77% concordant with histopathology in diagnosing patchy alopecia, highlighting its usefulness as a diagnostic tool for conditions like alopecia areata, lichen planus pigmentosus, and discoid lupus erythematosus.
